If the DHCP state parameter is set to Enabled in the Configuration > IP
sub-menu of the SM/BHS, do not check the BootpClient option for Packet
Filter Types in its Protocol Filtering tab, because doing so can block the
DHCP request. (Filters apply to all packets that leave the SM via its RF
interface, including those that the SM itself generates.) If you want to keep
DHCP enabled and avoid the blocking scenario, select the Bootp Server
option instead. This will result in responses being appropriately filtered and
discarded.
DHCP DNS IP Address Canopy devices allow for configuration of a preferred and alternate DNS
server IP address either automatically or manually. Devices must set DNS
server IP address manually when DHCP is disabled for the management
interface of the device. DNS servers may be configured automatically from
the DHCP response when DHCP is enabled for the management interface of
the device. Optionally devices may be configured to set the DNS server IP
address manually when DHCP is enabled for the management interface. The
default DNS IP addresses are 0.0.0.0 when configured manually.
Preferred DNS Server The first DNS server used for DNS resolution.
Alternate DNS Server The second DNS server used for DNS resolution.
Domain Name The operator’s management domain name may be configured for DNS. The
domain name configuration can be used for configuration of the servers in
the operator’s network. The default domain name is example.com, and is
only used if configured as such.
